Energy Smoothies
I just moved to Washington (it's cloudy a lot). So I wanted to see if people could give me suggestions on what to add to smoothies or even just take daily to aid in energy and focus. I work a night job, and I would really like to have something to make quick before going in each night.

Hey you ever had a Green Tea Smoothie
Green Tea Bags- 2
Blueberries (fresh)- 2 cups
Fat Free Vanilla Yogurt- 12 ozs
Almonds (dry, roasted, unsalted) – 2 tbsp
Flax seeds- 2 tbsp
Water- ¾ cups
Ice Cubes-
Taste great plus drinks loads of water keeps you awake0 -
My favorite smoothie of all time is: greek plain yogurt, frozen banana, peanut butter powder, a bit of chocolate chips and raisins.
As for energy and focus, I would say you can either do it naturally (e.g., nutrition and exercise, and being well rested)...or you can do it via drugs...meaning caffeine.
Good luck.0 -
This is my favourite smoothie which I basically have every morning, and it gives me heaps of energy for the day:
6 x Strawberries
6 x Raspberries
150ml fat free vanilla yoghurt
1tsp LSA
1tsp white chia seeds
ice cubes
chilled water
I also add liquid iron and silica gel to my smoothies.
You can add basically any type of fruit to this. Sometimes I add kiwi fruit, watermelon, bananas etc0 -
I add things like apples, pears, bananas, beets, cashews, chia seeds, hemp seeds, hemp oil, cacao, cherries, blueberries, coconut water, spirulina, etc to my smoothies. Just mix and match things.0
